Speedmap #67
Speedmap 67 is done! There are 6 singleplayer Quake maps here done by 4 authors! A few new faces this week, Jacek and Headthump, plus regulars Xen and Zwiffle made up some good maps this week.

The weeks theme was 'Quantity over Quality' and most mappers stuck right to it. See some little pictures and download the pack at the speedmapping site. Enjoy!

Not The Mention 
There's another map that i was supposed to release last week, but didn't finish on time:

http://www.planetquake.com/necros/temp/ne_dust2.zip (0.45mb)
following the parody theme.

(guess scampie forgot ;) ) 
Xen's Was Cool 
Yeah go Xen. 5 hours worth it for 10 minutes of play! 
Demos For All! 
available in both flavours!

http://www.planetquake.com/necros/temp/sm67_demos.zip (6.1MB)
http://www.planetquake.com/necros/temp/sm67_demos.dz (2.3MB)

note that i cheated on some maps. (some are obviously not beatable without them...)

and, xen! that map was awesome! i suspect you went over the timelimit slightly, but that was an awesome map! with some tweaks to gameplay (notably: more health!) and a bit more detail, this map could be really cool! 
Just Played Xen's 
Nice solid looking layout, and tough as hell to beat. Mine should be beatable by strafing in the first area and encouraging infights. 
 
I liked necros' map best. Maybe you should run a 'max brush count + no clone tool' theme. 
Good Pack 
Well done all - good set of maps.

sm67_headthump : HeadThump's first speedmap, so very good effort. MORE ammo next time please, I had to kill at least 25% of those monsters with my axe hehe :)

sm67_jacek & sm67_jacek2 : Good set of maps considering you haven't speedmapped before. Textures in the first map were a bit of an odd mix. Playable map though, and when I saw the 3 e1m7 bosses, I thought HELP! You were saying in the speed mapping thread could somebody kill all the monsters in you second level. I think not, as you haven't put in a weapon to kill the zombies.

sm67_zwiffle & sm67_zwiffle2 : Enjoyed these evil, evil maps. I tried to finish the second map without the RL you get from the first, and there is juuuust enough ammo. Hell of a challenge.

sm67_xen : Excellent map. With less repetition, and more detail it could be a full release.

I blew my entry this week. I started a lava map a bit like zwiffle's, but released I didn't have a clue about terran brushs. Second ettempt was quite a nice looking hanger, but the gameplay was shot. Me thinks I'll do it in advance next week :) 
Ne_dust2.bsp 
Cool map necros. Very enjoyable CS conversion.

Btw, all those speedmap maps are beatable without cheats. 
I Think... 
zwiffle's 2nd map is beatable without cheats, but i didn't have the patience to take on all the ogres with only the double shotty.

i also think zwiffle's first map is plenty beatable. if i hadn't lost health by getting hurt by my own rocket explosions, i would probably have been able to take on the last vore in close quarters, or run past it towards the exit.

headthumps map i was unable to beat regularily. had to resort to a trick jump to get past the bars to the exit.... dunno what that was all about... and yeah, more ammo. :)

jacek's maps were ok, but not very pretty... gameplay was ok, but facing 3 chthons was retarded and i immediatly put on godmode and noclip. 
Aiee :S 
There were supposed to be two more megahealths in my map but for some reason they wouldn't display! Even putting them well away from surrounding surfaces. You just have to be cautious when playing.. get some infighting going & whatnot. Thanks to those who liked it anyway :-)

Am checking necros's map & demos now 
Will Do 
Necros' demo was pretty instructive feed back for me. I should have put a message at the switch and a sound at the door to let you know it is opening. The door is timed, so if you don't see it, you may not even suspect what is going on. Also, the lst test run I gave it, about a third of the monsters murdered one another, so I was under the impression the ammo was adequate. 
Necros: 
You tit, there was a nailgun in the second room :D

I'll have a go at recording one on mine
